yea why not?

this is taken from louisiana seafood website


quote:

Crawfish tail meat that has been cooked and deveined can be frozen for several months. If the tail meat is to be frozen for more than 5 months it is best to wash the yellow fat off of the meat as it can become rancid after prolonged freezing. Package the tail meat in small 12 ounce or 1 pound sealed containers and expel all air before sealing. Thaw in refrigerator for a full day before cooking.

I can remember (30+ years ago) actually being able to buy small containers of crawfish fat along with the tail meat. I think there was a problem with it going rancid (and made some people sick), so I think that is why they no longer sell it that way.

I got some old crawfish tails at a spot in BR once. The fat was rancid as shite.

I didn't know it was that old. Really disappointing. I've always heard the rule is 6 months.
